Comment (by mikelopez):

 Currently, WLM uses the following filters for protecting content:

 `taxonomy_template`, `page_template`, `single_template`,
 `category_template`, `tag_template`

 We could use `template_redirect` but I'm wondering if this is the one that
 should be fixed.

 Turns out BP creates a dummy post with ID=0 for the activity page. I don't
 understand why this is needed. The function `bp_theme_compat_reset_post`
 says:

 {{{
 This dummy data is necessary because theme compatibility essentially fakes
 WordPress into thinking that there is content where, in fact, there is
 none
 }}}

 when in fact there will '''always''' be content as BP requires it.

 I also think that there's also the chance for other plugins to be thrown
 off because of said dummy post.

 Thoughts?
